Fig 5. Saliva and tears flow rate.

Fig 5

The intraperitoneal injection of DFMSCs significantly increased the saliva flow rate in Group 3a compared to Group 2 on day 154 (p<0.05) and increased the saliva flow rate in Group 3a on day 154 compared to day 126 (p<0.05). The lacrimal injection of DFMSCs in Group 3c did not significantly change the saliva flow rate in SS mice when compared with Group 2 on day 154 (p>0.05). The intraperitoneal injection of DFMSCs significantly increased tears rate in Group 3a compared to Group 2 on day 154 (p<0.05), and increased the tears rate in Group 3b on day 154 compared to day 126 (p<0.05).
